Saw a blue moon

Saw a blue moon on the drive home. Course, it was blue because of the tinted part of the windshield I caught it through. Blue as the cover of a philosophy reader. Blue as the thought of "What are we to do?" Forty-eight things to do in this world: 1. Open a book store; 2. Eat a lobster in Maine; 3. Coin a phrase ("kiss a brick"); 4.
